| I am looking at a Conn Vintage One trumpet that was manufactured in 1959. Is this a good year for Conn horns? Does anyone have any pros or cons about this particular model. Thanks in advance for your help. |

Uhhhh....Vintage One's weren't manufactured in 1959...soooooo...
You may want to double check the info on the horn you're looking at.

| Thanks so much for your info. I've asked the seller to double check the serial number before I consider the horn. |

| Conn has been recycling serial numbers for around 20 years, and I don't think they made the Vintage One models until around 2000 (???). |

Yeah, The Vintage One's are fairly recent horns. Post-Conn-Selmer type thing.
If they're selling a "vintage" Conn, depending on the year, model, and condition, it could be quite a jewel. I've heard some great things about some of them!
